Mexican Blue Femur
Bonnetina cyaneifemur
Bonnetina • Theraphosidae
Overview
A small Mexican dwarf with blue-tinted femurs. Species-specific literature is limited, so this follows standard, well-established Bonnetina dwarf husbandry: a dry, well-ventilated terrestrial setup with a hide/burrow and a water dish, low-to-medium humidity, room temps. Skittish but harmless — urticating hairs, mild venom.
